The Hedge We Cut Back Collapsed Across Their Garden!

[@FlawlessCleaningServices]

Welcome back everyone! With this video I just wanted to be transparent with you all, we have good days and bad days.. sometimes things go wrong but we will always put it right. Hope you all have a great weekend and thanks for watching!

[@annietoro4648]

You are very special (kind and honest ) people 💪👏♥️

[@ca6177]

I kind of think that the homeowners should have kept up with those shrubs so that they wouldn't have become so out of control! That being said, you did well!

[@turboedsloth2000]

The large quantity of material could be reduced into manageable porshions if you can strimm them down with a preferably old blade and transport them in a big bag or mabe a wheely bin. if you are able to optain a tipper trailer for the van that could help you out*

[@jeremycoleman318]

I knew this would happen and almost commented on the last video but didn't want to seem negative or tell you what to do so I didn't.

[@sbhimji4568]

In this particular case, I would have trimmed the hedge height to just under the battlements, or maybe 3 or 4 inches lower than the lowest point of the battlements. Next, enter the neighbor's side and stake the plants up, and reduce the plant thickness that juts into the property by at least half. I wouldn't have altered the wall at all, because it may affect the strength of it down the line, and you don't want any liability. I don't know how windy it gets there, but with enough friction, the ropes may not hold, and the pins and rope sticking out of the wall into the alley may be compromised by passers by. Or, instead of staking, maybe a trellis may work on the inner part of the wall.

[@EvasNan2020]

At the end of the day not your fault, it's the owners responsibility to keep it under control and not let it grow over a public right of way like that, good for you for coming back and sorting it for him though :)

There is a lesson here for all gardeners and hedge owners. Plants must be regularly maintained long before they create problems. This issue was years in the making. Also, I admire your integrity and tenacity in dealing with this out of control hedge.

Do not take on the burden of guilt. It is not yours. Circumstances (the storm) and others neglect (overgrown and untrained weakened hedge) created a problem that you resolved. Call it, what it is: a lesson learned. Looks great. Thanks for all the hard work. ❤

[@I_Dont_Answer_Questions]

It is their fault. 100%.

[@SusanTuson]

I have seen a lot of suggestions as to what Ben and his Dad should/could have done differently/better. The fact of the matter is, the hedge is the responsibility of the homeowners, it was overgrown into the alleyway and Ben cleared it to make it safe for people to use, the fact that the rest came down in the storm was their problem to sort not Ben's, I'm sure the homeowners were very chilled a out the whole situation being sorted, as it has definitely saved them a lot of time and money!! I personally would not have had the nerve to complain, i am astounded they did. That said Ben and his Dad are the most kind hearted generous people, and do the most amazing work, well done boys 👍

[@mirelaxo]

Exactly. Council wouldn’t have given two hoots if it were them doing the trimming. Probably would have back charged the owner too.

[@WiseAngelUK]

​@@mirelaxothey would have had a fine and it would have gone on the land registry records too, so if the house went up for sale. The future home owners would be aware of the problem hedge.

[@elisabethhopson5639]

Personally I would have just removed the whole lot. Having said that, you have done a brilliant job in sorting this problem out. It is now up to the homeowner to keep the hedge trimmed and the wall upright. 🙂

[@Absaalookemensch]

You're a good person. The quality of character is revealed when something like this happens. I agree with other commenters that the hedge would be better removed for the sake of the wall. As a home owner, I would have done that myself or hired a professional like you. Well done mate. You son has a father he can be proud of.

[@FlawlessCleaningServices]

Appreciate that, what could I install for privacy instead of the hedge for them? Thanks for watching

[@anothermophead]

​@FlawlessCleaningServices you could fix some posts to the top of the garden side of the wall and fix a trellis or simple fence. Make it about 600mm high from the top of the wall. You can cut a hedge to half its height and it'll regrow (a third can come off the width - did ghat to mu hedge. Advise from the Royal Horticultural Society)

[@plankface]

@@FlawlessCleaningServicesAny privacy should be the homeowners problem they only had it before because they let it go completely overgrown and hanging over, blocking the alleyway - they should try a little harder for privacy if brick wall isn’t enough. 😊

[@dianeladico1769]

@@FlawlessCleaningServices You can trim the hedge branches that extend into the yard. Those are the ones adding weight and pulling force. It'll look ragged for a while but small branches will leaf out to cover the bare spots and there will eventually be upward growth to give privacy. If you do trim inside, do a targeted surgical trim, not with the hedge clippers. More like pruning. Go in with bypass pruners and remove the thicker branches that go straight out and leave the shorter ones so you don't end up with a wall of rough cut stems. It will give a softer look and won't pull on the wall as much. Ideally you want it to stay upright without being tied to the wall.

[@jeanhorseman9364]

A previous comment is right when they said the ivy is the responsibility of the garden owner and if they also own the wall they should get rid of all the ivy if they want the wall to remain standing! I’m not sure all you effort to tie it down is a good idea. You are so kind and community minded I applaud your effort never the less.

Here here!!!

[@deborahhall6861]

It is wonderful of you to go clean this up, but of course, given that the hedge was on their property, it was their lack of maintenance and allowing it to overgrow so badly that caused the problem in the first place!

[@socluded]

A brick wall is not a very strong structure without a structure applying downward pressure. It would have better to remove the hedge completely. The surviving hedge may now produce an enormous amount of horizontal force on the wall. I hope it doesn’t cause damage to the wall because you do a brilliant job of helping the community.

[@mrsboxcar]

More like some kid will cut the cords to see what happens.

[@mrharry8466]

I didn't even think of that but absolutely right. If the wall is not well made it will absolutely fall down. Let's hope hey. Does look strong enough to support for now.

[@davidgibson7234]

got to agree… thats a lot of weight to attach to the wall…might have been a ‘cheaper’ plan to just pull the hedge out in the long run…

[@tracidelacruz966]

The hedge would have grown back even if it was cut down, right? Then it would be an easier job to manage its growth from the start to prevent this from getting too heavy again ?

Not your fault Ben, That would have happened whoever cut the hedge, and it had to be cut for the public’s safety. It should have been looked after properly and not allowed to get out of control it’s too late. Also too late to expect any other result. You did a great job with what you found.

If you want to use this as a learning opportunity, the lesson is "what not to do". Thankfully, there are people in the comments who are doing the right thing by pointing out how stupid and dangerous this is. The brick wall was not designed to have all that weight pulling on it. It's not going to end well. Hopefully we get to see the video of them fixing this monumental stuff up. 😄

[@mysticmeadowshomestead6209]

In America the homeowner of that hedge would've been made to pay for the removal of the hedge. it would've been on them to take it down and any subsequent wall-fall. I like and appreciate that you guys have a council that takes care of such things.

[@purplebutterfly7257]

What is that place where they dropped off all the cuttings?

[@tricky1581]

Nope. When a plant growing from your private property, blocks access to a public thouroughfare, be it pavement or road, it is your responsibility to clear the obstruction at your own expense. It is not the councils responsibility, they have little enough finances as it is to provide everyone with the services they need.

[@traceymcdowall886]

Great job as always! The storm was bad. I think the homeowner, if able, should have been maintaining the hedge anyway so you’ve done him a favour which is probably why he was so chilled about it.

[@MarciaTaylor-j3u]

It would have fallen anyway. It's not the storm it's that you don't know how to cut an ivy hedge. It's a mat underneath any good gardener knows that. It will take years to grow back. And now looks a mess.

[@laceitup1]

Unfortunately, now all the weight of the hedge is on one side of that brick wall. Looking close at the state of the concrete that is holding the brick up does not look very good. I can see cracks in it. It may fall anyway and bring the wall down anyway. That being said, I love what you and your dad do for the community and the elderly.❤

Guys, you definitely have to cut back the garden side. So the weight doesn't pull so much sideways. Inside the garden that hedge very overgrown too. The brick fence will be demaged by not doing so.

[@FlawlessCleaningServices]

We did a hard cut on the inside, and the owner said they would do it again at some point. But you’re right I can offer and see what they say. The inside had eyelets and wire all the way along, so the previous owner intended it grow along it but I guess maintenance just crept away from them

A lot of hedges get planted too close to the wall so all the growth is on one side. Taking off the overhang just made it even more lopsided.

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

My thoughts, exactly. Prune it down short for the owners and let them start again. I'm really afraid those viburnum will just pull the wall down. They're way too top heavy to support themselves and the wall isn't meant to support anything like that with the way it's built. Food for thought.

RJ please don’t call him the Ambassador his head is big enough as it is 😂.. thinking he can burn me with a hot spoon too, the cheek of it. Have a great weekend!

That grab & lift tool is a great idea!

[@MsALee85]

Love you guys. Your father is hilarious. 😂

I am a 75 year old great grandmother who doesn't know much about brick wall construction and all I could think was that's a disaster waiting to happen!!!

[@tigereyz40]

The neighbor said ok because their shrubs and trees were on your customers property! They were the ones who should have paid you in the first place. May God bless you both 🙂

[@judithobrien2750]

You guys are the bomb. You do great work and give us a laugh. On this job, you were done. The owners of the hedge recognised their responsibility and were chuffed when you came back. It really is on them. But, well done.

[@jenniferlashley2081]

Good temporary fix - maybe go back later and remove the hedge or cut it way back so it doesn't compromise the structural integrity of the brick wall. As always, lovely to see you and your dad working together.

[@LizStevenson-z3f]

Oh when your dad distracted you and touched your hand with the hot spoon, it reminded me so much of my own Dad. He’d do the same thing. He’s been gone a long time now but it made me laugh with happy memories.

[@catlvr1478]

Hoping the wall does not fall with weight of Ivy now tied to it. You both do a fantastic job.

[@TherealImmortalPhoenix]

I think your da works well. He has a great sense of humor and very active for his age. Ya'll make a great team. 😊

[@vickigem8673]

Great to see you back there sorting it 🎉

[@FlawlessCleaningServices]

Cheers Vicki! Have a lovely weekend

26-01-2024 IS VERY SATISFACTORY WATCHING YOURS VÍDEOS!!! I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ BRASIL 🥰 😍 🥰 😍 🥰

[@jamesalinio5277]

I should have seen the hedge pulling away from the wall last week Ben, and said something then, but it's good now, you got it fixed

[@jamesalinio5277]

Ben, the channel I saw your stolen content on is Power Washing World

[@AllisonWCone]

Wow! I swear your truck is a lot bigger on the inside than on the outside! It amazes me how much stuff you fit in it to haul off. I honestly hope this job doesn't come back to haunt you. I love your work and your videos are great. I love seeing you and your Dad working together. You're both blessed to have each other and be a part of each other's lives ❤ Thank you for being such a great reminder to help out our fellow neighbors- we really have no idea what they're up against. I wish your whole family lots of happiness and good health always. Keep doing the good works!

[@sarahkur9501]

It looks good now people can walk through safely

[@FlawlessCleaningServices]

Thank you Sarah for watching!

[@joanne9735]

Saw your dad's breakfast with eggs, baked beans etc. After watching so many British shows with that kind of menu, i decided to try baked beans with eggs, so delicious!! Really good! You have fun a great job on that alley! 🇺🇲

[@pamelaabettis7225]

I hope the weight of that hedge doesn’t topple the fence!

[@ExpectMiracles55]

I hope so too. To me that's an unstable and dangerous wall.

[@DanKoning777]

No worries-this just gave me an opportunity to 👍 twice! As always great job guys; *both times!* God bless.

[@FlawlessCleaningServices]

Appreciate that Dan!

[@Wickgirl65]

Nice job Ben and Paul. That was a surprising development. One I’m sure you didn’t expect.

[@alimar0604]

Gosh Ben, that was hard work, well done as always. Love little Arthur ❤🇬🇧
